It is further mutually agreed by the parties that should one or more of the parties wish to terminate this agreement, that party or parties shall be repaid h— original down payment, if A, or, if B, C, and/or D, they shall be repaid their original down payment or their original downpayment plus equalized down payment, depending upon time of termination.

If any of the parties should die without a policy of insurance in force as above specified, then that party's share of the indebtedness remaining on the land contracts shall be a debt owing to the survivors at the date of death and a liability of the deceased partner's estate. It is further mutually agreed by the parties that the parties and each of them may engage in any business other than that discussed under this agreement in such manner and at such times as they and each of them shall, from time to time, desire, completely free of any restriction, interest or claim by the partnership in them.

It is further mutually agreed by the parties that the proceeds realized from the sale of the real estate which is the subject of the agreement, when sold, together with the income, if any, from the real estate, excepting income from rental or lease, as covered in II(b) above, after payment of taxes and all costs of every kind and nature, shall be applied as follows: 25% to each party, and should any loss be incurred by reason of the purchase of the real estate, such loss shall be borne as follows: 25% by each party and that such sale of the real estate, followed by a final accounting and distribution as fixed in this agreement, shall operate to terminate this agreement as to all of the parties.
